Photo by Pep Bonet / NOOR images Burkina Faso, August 2015 Tikando artisanal gold mine. To separate the gold-bearing material from the silt, debris is washed and panned in sluice boxes. This is a task commonly undertaken by children. Adults and children handle mercury unprotected on a daily basis. Excessive mercury exposure seriously harms the digestive and immune systems, lungs and kidneys. Many are unaware of the chemical's toxic impacts and how to mitigate them.
